The old man walked around twice in front of Qi Dangxin's precious pill furnace, his face full of curiosity.
At this time, the old man had no idea that this calculus furnace, which was as tall as a person, was a gift from the previous emperor. Even if it was placed on the beam, it was still one of the best. This cauldron furnace was far beyond the capabilities of those available on the market.
By comparison, the most important
The reason is that this alchemy furnace is made of material. It looks like a simple bronze furnace, but the maximum endurance level of a general bronze furnace is seven or forty-nine days of intense fire. But be careful, this cauldron of alchemy furnace can be calcined by intense fire for nine or ninety-eight days.
For eleven days, everything was safe and sound.
If it weren't for special circumstances, Qi Dangxin would be reluctant to take out his treasure, but today's situation is very special.
At that time, Qi asked for three Great Returning Pills. These three Great Returning Pills have the effect of bringing the dead back to life. The entire beam can be burned out of no more than three people, and Qi Dangxin is one of them.
The reason why the Great Return Pill is rare is actually not that the materials required for this pill are so special, but that the forging time is long and the control of the fire is extremely demanding. If you don't have the patience and mature enough fire control skills,
Refining this Great Return Pill is almost as difficult as ascending to heaven.
It is precisely such a close alchemy method that seems to be particularly casual in Qi Dang's eyes. There are no cumbersome steps like ordinary alchemists. He never checks whether the almanac is a good day today when he goes out, and he does not ask his junior brother Qi to build an altar with a few chapters.
The painting baskets, the ancient mirrors and swords used to suppress evil spirits and exorcise demons are not even displayed.
If someone were to see this scene, they would definitely gnash their teeth and curse at you.
What's so annoying is that Qi Dangxin, who likes to play around so much, can be said to be a leader among the alchemists in Daliang.
Although he never shouted the words to reach the top, in ten or eight years, even if Qi Dang was careful not to shout, someone would still say: "Qi Qingguan still needs to be the leader in alchemy!"
To practice martial arts, it is enough for Qi Qingguan to have two people, Qi Qi and Qi Dao at that time.
To understand the Tao, it is enough for Qi Qing to have a person like Qi Qing.
For alchemy, Qi Qing Guan and Qi Dangxin alone are enough.
If you look at it this way, Qiqing Temple really does not give any chance to fellow Taoists, and its status as the top Taoist school for a hundred years cannot be shaken.
However, after Qi Qingguan's current generation, it is hard to say whether Qi Qingguan can still find a few people to take over the mantle.
After enlightenment, Qi had countless disciples, but there was never a single person who achieved great enlightenment.
Qi Dangxin's little apprentice is quite good at alchemy skills, and his understanding is more or less better than his master's. It's a pity that Qi Dangxin is not a master. Otherwise, his little apprentice has been with him for five years, and now he is only
He knows how to light fires, and helps his master take the blame for some misdeeds.
As for practicing martial arts.
Everything is unknown.
The old man Sun Xiaoran walked around in front of the alchemy furnace for a few times, looking at the smiling fat man Qi Dangxin, and shook his head helplessly. If this Qi Qing was the person in the temple that the old man admired the most, then it was probably this Qi Dangxin.
In the eyes of many people, Qi Dangxin is an idle person. He has nothing serious to do except throwing away things every day, refining elixirs and collecting medicines. However, in the eyes of the old man, Qi Dangxin is indeed the most handsome Taoist priest in his life. He is as wise as he is stupid. It seems that
The unintentional person is indeed the most intentional person. The kindness of the former emperor
, all the Taoist priests in Qi Qing Temple remember it, but the one who remembers it most profoundly is that the entire Qi Qing Temple hid in the mountain for refuge, only Qi Danxin came down the mountain with two resurrection pills, and he could wait for Qi Danxin to run there.
After Chang'an, the previous emperor had died, and the two Resurrection Pills in his hand were of no use.
Not many people know about this matter. The old man knew it, and Qi knew it at the time.
Everyone in Qi Qing's temple thought that the second elder, Qi Dangxin, did not know how to do martial arts. In fact, this was not the case. Qi Dangxin's level had reached the first level of Xuantian before he knew it. He was not as good as the masters, but compared with normal people, he was still powerful enough to turn the tide.
Qi was very scheming at that time.
If something happened to Qi Qingguan one day, Qi Dangxin, who had no choice but to make alchemy, might be Qi's back-up man at that time, and the old man knew very well that Qi could not only have such a back-up man at that time.
"Be careful, what will you do if the former prince comes out?" The old man looked at Qi Dangxin and asked with a smile.
"Isn't it already out?" Qi Dangxin replied with a smile, blowing out the breeze from the cattail leaf fan in his hand.
"Haha." The old man pursed his lips and smiled, and continued to ask: "What do you think will happen to your alchemy furnace if I increase the fire now?"
"It's not that great. This alchemy furnace is strong." Qi Dangxin curled his lips in disapproval.
"Yeah?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand, and a burst of internal energy blew into the alchemy furnace.
After a while, the alchemy furnace actually showed no response at all.
"Your alchemy furnace is indeed very powerful." The old man nodded with a smile on his face, and then ran out of the house with his hands behind his back.
After the old man left, Qi Dangxin wiped the sweat on his face, turned and shouted into the alchemy furnace room: "Let's go, senior brother, please come out."
Qi very carefully stuck his head out and took a look outside. After making sure that the old man was gone, he slowly walked out.
"Senior brother, tell me why you are so afraid of him. If it comes to fighting, you may not be able to beat him!" Qi Dangxin said to Qi with a smile.
"If I win, you will take your grandson away. If I lose, all the Taoist priests in Qi Qingguan will still be watching. I can't win this fight, no matter whether I win or lose." Qi was helpless at that time.
Explained something.
"Haha, you think too much." The second elder smiled honestly.
"Your alchemy furnace is red." Qi pointed at the alchemy furnace at that time.
Qi Dangxin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, stretched out his head, looked at the alchemy furnace carefully, then frowned and said, "Something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"It looks like it's going to explode."
Qi Dangxin muttered in confusion, then stretched out his hand to grab Qi Shi and shouted: "Run!"
"boom!"
There was a loud bang in the sky.
The entire Qiqing Temple was shaken.
Even the young man and the stargazer far away in the mountains felt the slightest tremor.
Stargazing looked up at the billowing black smoke in the sky, sighed helplessly, held his little cheek and whispered: "It seems that the second grandfather's alchemy furnace exploded again."
Qi Dangdao in the waterfall grinned and said nothing.
After the tremor, all the Taoist priests in Qiqingguan looked up at the sky, as if everyone could see the black smoke rising from the alchemy room.
"Is this the third time this month?"
"Yes, we have to go out to the alchemy room again to help clean up."
The little Taoist priests were not surprised at this, and muttered helplessly, and then continued their work, practicing martial arts when they should, and studying when they should study, as if nothing had happened.
At that time, Qi and Qi Dangxin hurriedly ran out of the alchemy room. Qi looked pretty good at that time. At least except for his face being a little dark, he could still see through the rest. After all, he was a master of the third level of Xuantian.
This reaction was still there, but Qi Dangxin was not so lucky. The clothes on his body were still torn open numerous times, and his face was as black as charcoal.
The two of them stood outside the door with embarrassed faces, looking at the old man on the eaves opposite the house.
The old man took a sip of wine with a smile and shouted to Qi Dangxin: "So it was your senior brother you were practicing just now?"
Qi Dangxin gritted his teeth and looked at the old man, not knowing how to refute.
"Ha ha!"
The old man laughed and slowly disappeared above the eaves.
"Senior brother, if you don't get rid of this person, we Qi Qingguan will not be able to calm down!" After the old man left, Qi Dangxin shouted angrily at Qi.
"Hey, I'll cut it off with someone's hand." Qi sighed helplessly and walked slowly back to the alchemy room, looking at the alchemy furnace in the room with somewhat distressed eyes.
"This alchemy furnace was given to me by the emperor, and it fell down just like that." Qi Dangxin yelled through gritted teeth.
"I'll just find another one for you."
Qi was heartbroken at that time, but his words were calm and calm. Although this alchemy furnace was extremely precious, it was gone at this time, and there was no use saying anything. Moreover, the Qi Qing Temple now is not the original Qi Qing Temple.
It can't be described as rich and powerful, but Qi could still afford a pill furnace at that time, but Qi did have a lot of money at that time, so
Because most of the incense money was used for the construction of Qi Qingguan, Qi Qing was careful about this alchemy furnace and had to replace it every month. Qi Qingguan was indeed rich, but the leader Qi was poor at the time.
The jingle sounded, but he still had to bite the bullet and promise Qi to be careful. After all, if he hadn't been hiding in the alchemy room today, Sun Xiaoran would definitely not have followed him to the alchemy room.
"This is not a matter of the alchemy furnace and the Bhutanese furnace. The whole beam of this alchemy furnace is the same as ours. It's better now. Let that drunken man break it." Qi Dangxin shouted helplessly.
"I said it back then, didn't you also allow it?"
"Who knew he was really here?"
Qi Dangxin regretted it endlessly. If the alchemy furnace exploded due to his fault on weekdays, Qi Dangxin would definitely not feel so distressed. After all, he usually used ordinary alchemy furnaces, but the one that broke today was indeed his beloved. Qi Dangxin would definitely feel distressed.
.
Qi shook his head helplessly at that time, not knowing how to comfort his poor junior brother.
Qi Dangxin walked slowly to the location of the alchemy furnace. Looking at the herbs on the ground, he felt even more distressed. This alchemy furnace was precious, and the herbs in it were even more precious. Qi Dangxin had gone up the mountain to pick them all by himself, but
Today is gone, Qi Dangxin has never been so heartbroken.
"This herb is wasted. Tell me what to do!"
Qi Dangxin grabbed a handful of herbs and gritted his teeth and walked up to Qi Shi with a sad look on his face.
"I'm just trying to find it for you. It's a herb that we don't have in the mountains."
Qi replied nonchalantly at that time.
When Qi Dangxin heard this, he threw down the herbs in his hand and replied angrily, "You are just saying it's easy, why don't I go find it myself when the time comes?"
"Ha ha."
Qi laughed loudly at that time and looked up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qi Dangxin was silent for a moment, frowned and said in a low voice: "Brother, there is something I don't understand."
"Say." Qi nodded at that time.
"That child is really that important. We have a stargazer at home, which is actually quite good." Qi Dangxin asked.
"What is stargazing?" Qi asked back at that time.
"It seems like everyone knows that Guanxing is the reincarnation of Wenquxing, right?" Qi Dangxin grinned.
"What about grandson?" Qi continued to ask at that time.
"The reincarnation of Wu Quxing." Qi Dangxin continued.
"Then do you still remember what the master said before he died?"
Qi Dangxin smiled bitterly: "Master left us a message before he died, the world's surname is Li."
"Yes, then do you still remember what the master was doing before he died?"
Qi Dangxin recalled it and shook his head slightly.
Qi said with a joking smile at that time: "What the master looked at before he died was a star chart. The two stars marked in the picture were Wenqu star and Wuqu star. Although the master didn't say it, I know that the master has already calculated these two stars."
"Then why didn't Master say anything?" Qi Dangxin continued to ask.
"Master knows that as long as we find these two stars, it will be a good thing for us Qi Qingguan, but it may not be a good thing for us, and it is not a good thing for these two children, so the master will not say anything."
Qi Dangxin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, turned to look at Qi who had been silent for a long time, and said lightly: "After so many years, you still know the master best."
Qi stopped talking at that time and continued to look at the sky.
I don't know how much time passed, but Qi started to walk forward.
"Senior brother, you have to hurry up about the stove!" Qi Dangxin shouted at the top of his lungs.
"I know." Qi agreed with great irritability.
"But you must hurry up!" Qi Dangxin repeated with some worry.
"I already said I knew it."
Qi quickened his pace at that time, as if he wanted to leave this second junior brother who talked endlessly as soon as possible.
…
Under the waterfall, the boy followed Qidang Dao to pour water for a whole morning. At first, he watched the stars from the sidelines, but later he got really bored and started to let Dangdang carry him for a walk in the woods.
"When can I learn martial arts? What's the use of keeping going like this?"
Seeing Stargazer leaving, the young man naturally felt confident enough to speak.
"How long has it been since you couldn't hold it anymore?"
Qi Dangdao replied lightly.
"It's not that you can't hold it in, I just don't think it makes any sense to continue practicing like this." The young man replied with his lips curled up.
"Okay then, come out with me."
Sun Tzu did not expect that Qi Dangdao actually agreed and ran out of the waterfall in a hurry. However, maybe because he was running in a hurry, he forgot about his luck and fell into the stream with a splash, causing waves of water splashes.
Qi Dangdao stood on the shore and shook his head helplessly. That sentence was too stupid, maybe because he said it too many times, so he didn't want to say it anymore.
The young man struggled in the water for a long time and finally lay down on the shore. He looked at Qi Dangdao with some embarrassment and said nothing.
Qi Dangdao picked up the stone knife on the ground, threw it into the boy's hand, and then whispered: "From now on, you practice holding the knife! The knife must be steady and the hand must be straight. Do you understand what I mean?"
The young man shook his head.
"Then you learn from me now, and you can do it well as I do." Qi Dangdao replied helplessly.
